Workin' Hard or Hardly Workin'?

John came home Friday with a short video to show me what a hard day at work he had. All work and no play, ha!! Apparently this sort of thing is fun for him...

Eggs Anyone?

It's taken me 8 years but I think I am finally letting some things go as a parent. Things that I would have previously freaked out about now roll off me like water. It's kind of liberating! I can now step back and be the parent I wanted to be...the one who could look at a situation and not get mad but grab the camera and have a good laugh before cleaning up the inevitable mess. Years ago my mom said, "Remember their age." Indeed remember their curious exploring age. I have quit trying to figure out what they were thinking and just enjoy their learning,even if it does take extra minutes or hours cleaning up after them. Of course, after the incident I do have to let them know what they did was probably not a good idea...but it sure was funny!

Ethan LOVES hard boiled eggs. We don't have any that are currently hard boiled. While I was taking a shower Ethan decided that a hard boiled egg would be a great snack. He got an egg out of the refrigerator, put it on a plate, and placed it in the microwave. As I was getting out of the shower I thought I heard a loud pop but dismissed it as the neighbors are doing some landscaping. Well...here's what I found when I went downstairs. Eggs anyone?

Holes, Holes, Holes...

2 months ago I bought Jaxon and Dallen each 3 new pairs of jeans. Between the two of them all but 1 pair now have HUGE holes in the knees. I've been buying them at The Children's Place but I don't think I will anymore. I just added the jeans to the growing pile on their dresser which has 8+ pairs with holes, holes, holes! I am going to have to cut them off so they can use them as play shorts this summer :)

Who has jeans that are boy proof but does not make them look like they are visiting from 1972 or the jeans are so stiff they can't even move? I just want some jeans to last more than 2 months...am I asking too much? Maybe so...
